@article{Corso_2015, title={Modifying Masculinity, Forging Femininity: Male Feminist Discourse and the Manifestation of an Independent Female Idenity}, volume={9}, url={https://youngscholarsinwriting.org/index.php/ysiw/article/view/132}, abstractNote={This article uses male feminist discourse surrounding rape culture as a platform for analyzing the relationships between masculinity and femininity and the theoretical manifestations of each. By deconstructing this discourse with a methodology inspired by bell hooks’s writings on race, the essay interrogates the possibility that specific discussions about sexual assault from a male feminist perspective may risk marginalizing femininity. The conclusion of the article outlines a “feminist femininity” that speaks back to male feminist discourse.}, journal={Young Scholars in Writing}, author={Corso, Chiara}, year={2015}, month={Sep.}, pages={98-105} }
